I am about to start my B18C1 swap into my 88 crx. I plan on getting the engine in and running, and then about a week later putting on a turbo, probably a max-rev turbo setup like my brothers (DOHCarp)
what should I do to prep the engine for boost.
I am trying to get 10 or more psi out of the setup on a stock bottomend.
I already have skunk2 IM and heavy duty ACT, and chipped p28
what type of things can I do without doing internal work.
thanks for the help

anybody? what would you do if you were going to put a turbo on a b18c1? Im just looking for some ideas, so I can save time and do it while the engine is out of the car.

 

upgrade your fuel system to at least 450's and go with hondata or a vafc hack if your short on cash

 

10 psi will be pushing it. other people will tell you otherwise though.
if you want to boost more on a stock bottom end, look into a thicker headgasket, like inlinepro's or a cometic.

and definitly look into hondata, 550's, warlbro intank pump - and getting it dyno tuned

 

how many miles are on the motor ?

maybe change the timing belt , oil pump , water pump , etc...

just a few ideas that might help you out .
